Two Calcutta High Court judges are at each other’s throats, one having accused the other of being an “interested party”, vis-a-vis the Trinamool Congress. The situation has become so bizarre that the Supreme Court has had to take it up suo motu, giving notice to the state
The Division Bench of Justice Harish Tandon and Justice Soumen Sen was yesterday hearing a Suo Motu petition regarding the contagion of COVID-19 in Child Protection Homes.
The court listened to the SG for a while, before Senior Advocate Kalyan Bandopadhyay, appearing for the state, said that while the SG’s contentions were going on, his clients remained hanging under house arrest.
